Sort Performance | Event rate | 100,000 eps |
Sorting speed | Using the 70-μm sorting chip at 50 kHz, an average threshold of 12,000 events per second can be achieved with >98% purity and >80% yield. A threshold rate up to 30,000 events per second can be achieved without affecting purity but with a decrease in yield based on Poisson’s statistics. |
